Which app did that? I only got notifications when someone replied to a comment/post I made.
On the official app you would get notifications at certain milestones (1 upvote, 5 upvotes, 10 upvotes, 20 upvotes, 1000 upvotes, etc.).
Ah gotcha. Thanks
It was a New Reddit/official app thing
I think that was in Reddit itself, not any app. You know, apps just display notifications, and reddit creates them.
And yeah, as another user noted, this happened at different "milestones" like 1, 5, 10, 20 etc.
Nah it definitely was not just a reddit itself thing.
Reddit would send notifications to your reddit inbox even on desktop. Don't remember getting any for 1-20 though. If hadn't viewed the old notification, you wouldn't get the notification for the milestone.
The "official app" experience is not everyone's experience tho. Of course several people say theirs didn't change, but they were accepting shit anyways.
I believe you could also turn off vote notifications, I did im pretty sure. And you could also turn of replies too.
Also do you mean notifications in the notifications section of the app or push notifications to your phone?

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.
